−Removed: which may result in our dependency on such supplier.
−Removed: This is the case regarding sensors for the CMOS type technology that is produced
−Removed: by a single supplier in the United States.
−Removed: As we do not have a contract in place with this supplier, there is no contractual commitment
−Removed: on the part of such supplier for any set quantity of such sensors.

+Added: the future, we may consider building a focused sales and marketing infrastructure to market any future developed products and potentially
+Added: other products in the United States or elsewhere in the world.
+Added: There are risks involved with establishing our own sales, marketing, and
+Added: distribution capabilities.
+Added: For example, recruiting and training a sales force could be expensive and time consuming and could delay any

+Added: COVID-19 pandemic and we have experienced supply chain disruptions due to multiple factors, such as fulfillment center disruption and
+Added: limited shipping capacity.
+Added: This has led to abnormally high transportation delays and shipping costs, which has increased our cost of
+Added: Further, the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to increased operational and cybersecurity risks, including those
+Added: related to a number of our employees working remotely.
+Added: These risks include, among others, increased demand on our information technology
+Added: resources and systems, the increased risk of phishing, and other cybersecurity attacks as cybercriminals try to exploit an increased
